During the construction of a metro system, it is inevitable that deviations will occur between the excavated tunnel and the original designed scheme. As such, it is necessary to adjust the designed scheme to accommodate these discrepancies. Specifically, the adjustment of the designed scheme involves a rigorous process of repeatedly selecting and verifying the feasibility of the proposed modifications using point-cloud data obtained from the tunnel. However, this process can be considerably time-consuming due to the large-scale and potentially redundant nature of the point-cloud data. This paper proposes a mathematical model for point-cloud data acquired in measuring a mined tunnel, which may deviate from the originally designed one. The modeling, which mainly includes determining its normal plane, and building the equation of tunnel point-cloud data, is to quickly extract several key locations in the tunnel surface for modifying the original design in order to achieve a minimum error between the modified design and the mined tunnel. In comparison with the conventional processing of extracting several key locations directly from point-cloud data, our model shows a significant promotion of extraction efficiency under an acceptable error bound. The model is tested in a real tunnel point-cloud data and the testing results confirm the increase of fitting accuracy and the decrease of computational load.

This paper presents a tunable stiffness actuator with a soft-rigid combined layer jamming mechanism. The tunable stiffness actuator is aimed to be integrated into an exosuit to prevent ankle sprain and avoid or mitigate the development of chronic ankle instability. The main purpose of the soft-rigid layer jamming mechanism is to produce large stiffness with a small volume and achieve a linear stiffness characteristic. To this end, the actuator is designed to include rigid retainer pieces within the soft silicone layers, and each soft-rigid layer is jammed to induce stiffness changes. To validate the stiffness characteristics of the proposed soft-rigid actuator, a series of experiments were performed and stiffness changes were investigated for varying jamming states from unjammed to fully jammed states. Increasing the number of jamming layer effectively increased the actuator stiffness, which was consistent with expected results from the analytical model. Soft-rigid actuator's stiffness at the fully jammed state was 212.1% and 123.1% higher than the unjammed state for one-side and both sides anchored conditions, respectively. Compared to the soft actuator without the rigid retainer, the soft-rigid actuator exhibited a more linear characteristic (Pearson correlation coefficient = 0.990 and 0.997 for one-side and both sides anchored conditions, respectively). Moreover, the soft-rigid actuator achieved significantly higher stiffness than the soft actuator in all jamming states (at least 41.3% increase in each jamming state). The results suggest a potential use of the tunable stiffness actuator to develop a soft ankle exosuit with highly variable but linear stiffness characteristics.
